Burqas and dogs

Submitted by john Norman (United Kingdom), Jun 26, 2010 at 09:05

Oh. Mr/Mrs Muslim will you allow us, pretty please, to take our dogs on public transport and in your taxis if they are fitted with a burqa? I find the burqa deeply offensive and think any woman who wears a burqa should be refused entry into any private business area and any public area, including open spaces. Meanwhile no muslim male should be allowed entry into any private or public area, including open spaces, unless he is accompanied by a female from his own family. You want segregation, you will get segregation.
